“Don’t let your parents force you to live out their dreams. Go against what they say if you disagree and stop the cycle of parents forcing their kids to peruse the dreams they couldn’t because of their parents and the kids and the endless cycle before them.”

So I recently came out on social media and then wrote a letter for my parents that I was Pansexual. My mom said she accepted me (though she is confused) and would show my dad later. Then she had said she would give him the letter when he “felt better”. Well it’s been a couple days since she said that and I’m sure he’s “well enough” to read the letter. I don’t think it’s right that she’s making me wait when I’m actually ready. She’s just making the anxiety worse for when she actually gives it to him. Now that I’m ready to be happy my parents are still trying to find a way to make me feel like shit.

“You don’t need labels to define you. No one should have a label forced upon them. We are all just people. Labels are just a way for people to actually feel like they belong somewhere when in fact we belong wherever we want. We just can’t see it yet.”
